The last volume issued by the Society three years 
ago commemorated its 75th Anniversary year and it 
was thought fitting to insert in that volume views of New 
York contemporary with its foundation. In the present 
volume it seemed desirable to remind our members of 
the aims and purposes for which the Society stands, by 
inserting in this volume several of the contemporary news- 
paper accounts of the Society's origin, together with 
extracts from the diary of Mr. Philip Hone written at 
that time. From these it can be seen that it is pre- 
eminently a Knickerbocker Society with most of our 
original and early members representing families de- 
scended from Holland stock. The perusal of these ex- 
tracts should incite a feeling of pride in having the family 
name always appear on our roll of members. 

Since the last volume was published, a Memorial Tab- 
let to Washington Irving was unveiled under the auspices 
of our Society. A reproduction of the tablet forms the 
frontispiece of this volume, and other illustrations are 
inserted of the Washington Irving High School in the 
vestibule of which the tablet is set. Through the courtesy 
of The New York Historical Society, a reproduction of 
a daguerreotype of Washington Irving taken by Plumb 
between the years 1843 and 1849 and presented by him 
to the mother of our present president, forms one of the 
illustrations, and an interesting ''find" of a lost page of 
Doctor Francis' address on Irving is reproduced.

adoption of the Constitution, who shall sign the same, and pay^ the 
sums thereby required, and of such other persons as shall be admitted 
members according to the provisions of the Constitution. 

The Constitution reported by the Committee was then 
amended, by substituting, instead of the Monday in 
Easter week to be observed as the anniversary of the 
Society, "the sixth day of December in each year, un- 
less that day fall on Sunday, in which case the anniver- 
sary shall be held on the seventh." 

On motion of Ogden Hoffman, Esq., the Constitu- 
tion, as amended, was adopted as the Constitution and 
By-Laws of the Saint Nicholas Society of the City of 
New York, and was referred back to the same Com- 
mittee to classify the several parts as Constitution and 
as By-Laws. 

Ogden Hoffman, Esq., was, on motion, added to the 
Committee. 

On motion, it was 

Resolved, That the members present hand in their names to the 
Secretary, to be enrolled by him, and that such enrollment be con-

Constitution is prepared to be signed by the members. 

The following names were then handed in : 

(Then follows a list of two hundred and seventy-five names.) 

On motion, it was 

Resolved, That a Committee of five be appointed by the Chair to 
report, at the next meeting, the names of suitable persons to be 
selected as officers of the Society, and that on the coming in of their 
report any member may be at liberty to nominate any other candi- 
date than those reported. 

The Chair appointed Judge Irving, General Laight, 
Cornelius Heyer, General Jones and Abraham Scher- 
MERHORN, on tliis Committee.

8 ORIGIN OF THE SOCIETY 

Saint Nicholas Society. — Under this name a society 
has recently been organized in this city, composed of 
native New Yorkers and of the descendants of the old 
burghers. 

Its objects are the promotion of good fellowship and 
social intercourse between old citizens, and charity to- 
wards those of them who may have fallen into decay. 

A first celebration will be held, we understand, on 
Pans Monday. The list of officers will be found in an- 
other column.

talented barrister, Henry R. Storrs, Escj., each of whom 
delighted the company with appropriate remarks pre- 
paratory to their toasts. The solemnities of the occasion 
were performed by Bishop Onderdonk and the Rev. Dr.. 
j\rCartee. The following were the regular toasts :

EXTRACTS FROM THE DIARY OF PHILIP HONE I I 

The following Extracts are printed from the original 
Diary of Philip Hone as throwing a sidelight upon the 
formation and two of the early anniversary meetings of 
the Society. 

February 14, 18^^. — I attended this evening a meet- 
ing at Washington Hall of a number of New Yorkers, 
with a design to form a regular Knickerbocker society, 
as a sort of set-off against St. Patrick's, St. George's and 
more particularly the New England. The meeting was 
large and exceedingly respectable; there were the Irv- 
ings, Moores, McVickars, Renwicks, Rapelje, Stuy- 
vesant, Laight, Fish, Wilkins, the Schermerhorns, 
Brinckerhoffs, Costers, Golden, etc., — a goodly show of 
good fellows who will not disgrace their ancestors. 
Abr. Bloodgood was chairman and Washington Irving 
secretary. A committee was appointed, consisting of 
Peter Schermerhorn, Judge Irving, Alexander Wyckoff, 
Hamilton Fish, Dr. Manley, and the President and Sec- 
retary, to report a constitution, by-laws, etc., to a future 
meeting. I suppose we shall have a few annual dinners, 
which will be pretty much all that will grow out of this 
project. 

December 6, 18^6. — In the evening I attended the anni- 
versary meeting and dinner of the St. Nicholas Society. 
Gulian G. Verplanck, the newly elected President, pre- 
sided, with Washington Irving and John A. King as 
Vice-Presidents. There were not more than fifty or sixty 
sat down to dinner, and it was rather a forced concern. 
I doubt if there will be another anniversary. There is 
great difficulty in keeping up with the other National 
Societies, even with the advantage they have in forming 
a rallying-point for their respective countrymen lately 



12 EXTRACTS FROM THE DIARY OF PHILIP HONE 

arrived among strangers, a sort of home abroad, affording 
strong claims upon national sensibility ; but in our society 
their is no such bond of union, and the zeal with which 
some of its founders entered into the undertaking has 
visibly subsided. 

I made a short speech complimentary to Washington 
Irving, and his last book, in which I descanted upon the 
mercantile character of the Country, and took occasion to 
introduce the name of Mr. Astor, and eulogize the Spirit 
with which he engaged in the enterprise which forms the 
subject of the work. I closed the remarks with the fol- 
lowing toast : 

''Astoria — Commercial Enterprise immortalized by the 
pen of genius." 

Irving was sensibly affected by my remarks to which he 
replied with great feeling and some embarrassment and 
afterwards left his seat and came around to me to make 
his acknowledgment. 

December 6, 1838. — The anniversary dinner of the St. 
Nicholas Society was held to-day, at the Amercian Hotel. 
Mr. Cozzens gave as good a dinner as I ever sat down 
to; all excellent, hot and. well served, and the wines 
capital. There was the usual quantity of toasting and 
speaking. The President (Mr. Verplanck) made a long 
address, in the form of an annual report of the state of 
the society, in his quaint, amusing style. Dr. Francis, 
as Physician-General, was very happy. I made a short 
address when called upon, and concluded with the fol- 
lowing toast: New Yorkers, "at home" to all the world; 
let them not forget that they are masters of the house.

]final IReport ot tbe WHaeblngton Hrvina 
fiDemorial Committee 

Presented to the Society and read at the Stated Meeting 

held May ist, 1913. A reproduction of the Washington 

Irving Tablet forms the frontispiece to this volume. 

By the courtesy of the Board of Education the mem- 
bers of the St. Nicholas Society were invited to attend 
the ceremonies of presentation and unveihng of the 
Washington Irving Tablet presented by the Society, at 
the High School building, on the one hundred and thir- 
tieth anniversary of the birth of Washington Irving, 
April the third, 191 3. 

The occasion was graced by a representative attend- 
ance of members of the Society, distinguished members 
of the Board of Education and more than fifteen hundred 
of the faculty and scholars of the Washington Irving 
High School. 

The exercises, arranged by Principal William Mc- 
Andrew, were marked with success and were especially 
impressive in the details of the formal unveiling, per- 
formed by Mr. Suydam, assisted by three beautiful young 
girl-students, standing on the Irving Place steps of the 
building in the presence of the thronged populace, who 
viewed with evident delight this entree of our President 
into the historic field of the moving picture, amid the 
melody of choral song by fifteen hundred girl voices. 

Preceding this event addresses were delivered in the 
Auditorium, as quoted in part herein, from the official 
report of Principal McAndrew. 

Unveiling of the Washington Irving Tablet at the 
Washington Irving High School, on Thursday, April 3d,

Extracts from speeches at the unveiling of the tablet 
presented by the St. Nicholas Society to the Washington 
Irving High School, April 3 ; such extracts being those 
which refer directly to the Society. 

Hon. Frank D. Wilsey, Chairman, Committee on 
Buildings, Board of Education: 

''St. Nicholas, whose name has been taken by the 
Society which honors us this afternoon, was the pro- 
tector of the young and helpless ; of the weak against the 
strong ; of the poor against the rich ; the friend of 
mariners and travelers ; the kindly protector of young 
girls." 

''His festival is the most joyous of the year, now cele- 
brated in the evening, December 24. Among the old 
Dutch inhabitants of New York, this jolly saint was 
celebrated with great rejoicing. His name with which 
every child is familiar, was in Dutch "Santa Klaus." 



WASHINGTON IRVING MEMORIAL TABLET 29 

He and his jolly wife came frolicing into the houses 
carrying bundles of cakes and toys upon their backs for 
the good boys and good girls of the family. It is a very 
happy selection that these distinguished gentlemen here 
have made in choosing this jolly old saint as their patron. 
It is quite a suitable act that they have chosen to come 
to us with a present, the beautiful and artistic work of 
Victor Brenner which honors Washington Irving, a 
founder of their, society. As Chairman of the Committee 
on Buildings, which is still in possession of this school 
house, I have the honor to accept this tablet on behalf 
of the Board of Education, and to express to the members 
of the St. Nicholas Society gratitude of that Board, the 
thanks of the Washington Irving High School, and the 
commendation of all patriotic citizens who will rejoice 
at this evidence of public spirit and generosity displayed 
by the Society." 

Address by Wm. D. Murphy, Esq., was a review of 
the life of Washington Irving; of the history of the St. 
Nicholas Society, and its representation of the spirit of 
old New York ; of its cosmopolitan nature ; and of its 
relations to Washington Irving' s memory. 

Mr. Murphy related the origin of the project to pre- 
sent the tablet to the school; the appointment of the 
Washington Irving Alemorial Committee, the bequest of 
]\Ir. Wandell; the selection of Victor Brenner as sculp- 
tor ; the choice of a Washington Irving portrait ; Irving's 
success in captivating literary England and America ; his 
optimism ; his uplift ; his public services. In conclusion 
Mr. ]\Iurphy said: "Mr. President, of the St. Nicholas 
Society, the work of your committee is completed. The 
bronze has been placed at the portals of this temple of

learning through which every day more than five thou- 
sand bright, girl students will pass, treading the highway 
to that educational advancement and literary culture 
which Washington Irving so fully typified." 

Mr. Walter Suydam : 

"On behalf of the St. Nicholas Society it is my pleasure 
to present to the Washington Irving High School a 
bronze memoral of the distinguished author whose name 
we honor and celebrate to-day." 

Hon. John Greene, representing High School Com- 
mittee of the Board of Education : 

"St. Nicholas Society has done well in selecting a 
public high school as the repository of a memorial like 
this. Its interests are in a particular degree those to 
which such memorials make a strong appeal. Gentlemen, 
you have shown a strong sense of fitness in choosing 
one of the citadels of the republic round whose walls 
should have seen memorials presented by other public 
spirited socities desiring to develop the souls of those 
who are capable of following in the steps of the great 
men and the great women whose services are commem- 
orated. It gives me the greatest pleasure on behalf of 
the High School Committee to accept this enduring mem- 
orial of a great American, a great artist, and an alto- 
gether lovable, earnest, and gentle spirit." 

Hon. T. W. Churchill, President of the Board of 
Education, whose address was upon the character of 
Washington Irving, said in the course of his remarks: 

"This school is to be complimented in having won 
the friendship of the famous old St. Nicholas Society, 
which is presenting this beautiful and costly tablet to- 
dav. I am informed that the Society has deposited 



WASHINGTON IRVING MEMORIAL TABLET 3 1 

with the principal of the school, minature reproduc- 
tions of this tablet which are to be given each year 
to that girl who most signally exemplifies the sweet, old- 
fashioned trait of amiability. 

*'I do not know of any more valuable service that the 
St. Nicholas Society could render the community than 
emphasis upon that cjuality of Washington Irving and 
of the Washington Irving School which is summed 
up in the adjective most frequently used in describing 
this man as the "genial" Irving. 

"The world wants cheerfulness. It is the oil that 
lubricates the wheels of life. The schools need cheerful- 
ness ; it is the lure that draws children from the street. 
Youth is the time of brightness, of sunshine, of geniality. 
That girl or woman, boy or man, who lets loose upon 
the bright time of youth, its schooldays, any of the dark- 
ness of hate, or dislike, or envy, or jealousy, or meanness, 
or unkindness, commits a civic misdemeanor. Let him 
or her consider the life of the great man, born 130 years 
ago to-day, who lives forever in the hearts of Americans 
not so much because he was the great biographer of 
iMahomet, Goldsmith and \\^ashington ; not so much be- 
cause he was the historian of the American Revolution ; 
not so much because he described the regions of the 
world; but because in his books and in his life he was 
genial, companionable, frank and kindly and true." 

Twelve of the small bronze replicas of the tablet were 
given to be awarded as prizes, two each year, as referred 
to in the address of President Churchill. Copies were 
also given to several members of the Board of Education 
and others taking part in the unveiling ceremonies ; and 
a copy has been given to each of the following institu- 
tions : The New York Public Librarv, The New York 



32 WASHINGTON IRVING MEMORIAL TABLET 

Historical Society, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 
The American Numismatic Society, The Missouri 
Historical Society, all of which have formally acknowl- 
edged the receipt thereof. 

Thus happily terminated an event conceived and car- 
ried out in full accord with the traditional spirit and 
purposes of this society, to preserve and emphasize the 
memories of Manhattan and the achievements of its 
eminent citizens. 

It is gratifying to note that the placing of this tablet 
received much favorable comment both as to purpose 
and design and has been regarded as worthy of detailed 
record by the American Scenic and Historic Preserva- 
tion Society in its annual report. 

In conclusion your committee would record its ap- 
preciation of the courtesies extended by the members of 
the Board of Education, the Principal of the School and 
Mr. Snyder, the Architect of the Department, through 
whose kindness the attached photographs of the School 
Building were obtained, enabling this report to reveal 
something of the environment in which the Society has 
placed an enduring tribute to the memory of an honored 
citizen of old New York and a well loved son of Saint 
Nicholas. 

Respectfully submitted. May the first, 19 13.

H&5re00 of Wv. ifrancie 

Extract from an address delivered before The New 
York Historical Society December 6th, 1859, by Dr. 
John W. Francis (a well-known old New Yorker and 
an original member of this Society) entitled "Reminis- 
cences of Washington Irving." Dr. Francis' address was 
printed in 'Trvingiana, a Memorial of Washington Irv- 
ing" (New York i860) under the title of ''Characteristics 
of Washington Irving." 

In hunting for material concerning Irving to incor- 
porate in this volume, the rarities of The New York 
Historical Society were searched into and the original 
manuscript of the address of Dr. Francis was there dis- 
covered. While looking over this a loose page, the page 
containing this extract, dropped out, and suggested a 
comparison of the manuscript with the address as 
printed, and so it was found that this page had been 
wholly omitted, having probably never come into the 
printer's hands. 

The following is of peculiar interest as it appears 
here in print for the first time, and also because it re- 
lates exclusively to Irving's connection with our Society. 

*'On this fleeting occasion I must not omit to notice an 
event in the annals of humanity which shows how deeply 
Mr. Irving's feelings were involved in whatever added 
to the interests or honour of his native New York. He 
had for years observed the character and import of 
the many social institutions which so strikingly glorify 
this city and yield beneficial results to the people of dif- 
ferent origins here clustered in the metropolis, while to 
his amazement he was struck with the circumstances 
that no adecjuate special organization had been as yet 
created for charitable, benevolent and social purposes 



54 ADDRESS OF DR. FRANCIS 

by his own countrymen, exclusively for their benefit, as 
a distinct society. Shortly after his last return from 
Europe he summoned with little ado a meeting of his 
prominent Knickerbocker friends, pointed out the benefits 
and the patriotism blended with such a design and forth- 
with was founded the St. Nicholas Society in 1835. Mr. 
Irving declined accepting the office of President but 
repeatedly honored the anniversary meetings of the asso- 
ciation in person. Among the transactions of his long 
life there were few in which he exhibited more energy 
than in his relations with the formation of this prominent 
benevolent organization of native citizens. He never 
appeared at their annual festival without receiving the 
strongest testimonial of their appreciation of his ser- 
vices as their founder, in the rapturous applause which 
greeted his presence, evincing how numerous were his 
friends and how ardent their affections. His joyous 
and benignant expression and those quaint illustrations 
of New Amsterdam two hundred years ago which en- 
riched the board and decorated the walls of the Hall of 
Entertainment gave a zest to the scene not easily to be 
forgotten. When the History of the St. Nicholas' Char- 
ity shall have been written the recorded fact that a 
regular descendant of the redoubted hero Peter the 
Headstrong was selected as its first president it can only 
add to the richness of retrospective associations in this 
w^orld, so full of joy and of melancholy, yet abounding 
in good."
